Internal Family Systems Therapy
in New York
Helping adults who have been through some serious shit find meaning and joy in life again
Life's challenges can feel dark, heavy, or even impossible to deal with. Most people who start any kind of therapy feel stuck repeating the same painful patterns, but this is especially true when you've been through trauma. Maybe you feel like you want to escape your life or you know you'd be happier if you made changes but it feels safer and more comfortable to stay the same.
Stuck in negativity and feeling hopeless, you may feel like life is overwhelming, like it's too much.
My name is Kristina Jones, I am an Internal Family Systems trained therapist who has been through my fair share of tough shit, and I’m here to help.
Do you feel miserable, scared, or ashamed?
Does any of the following resonate with you?
You feel lonely, even when you are with others.
You lost the joyful feelings that you used to have in life.
You know that sadness isn't helpful but getting out of it alone isn't possible.
You feel like you are wandering through life, feeling like something is missing or your balance is "off."
If these sound true for you, I want you to know that therapy can help. And you might feel embarrassed to open up about what you’re really going through, even to family and friends. But therapy provides a non-judgemental space for you to talk freely about what’s bothering you. Even if you don't believe you deserve care, you do. You deserve to take care of yourself.
Internal Family Systems therapy can help you uncover your real Self again
It’s possible to feel better. Imagine being able to...
Really feel present in your daily life.
Improve your relationship with yourself and those you choose to share yourself with.
Create a more meaningful existence based on who you are and what you desire.
Get to the root problems and solve those instead of using band-aids.
Change your life for the better.
Step back and focus on healing
Internal Family Systems Therapy helps you rise above your challenges and start moving towards your ideal life with less less suffering and more fulfillment. You will uncover the root of your problems and finally resolve things from your past.
Even if you are fearful about talking about your childhood, IFS Therapy may be able to help.
I've helped survivors of trauma look inward to find their inherent strength. Through therapy rooted in compassion and connectedness, my clients have discovered parts of themselves they never knew existed, engaging in the healing process from within.
How Internal Family Systems Therapy works
IFS Therapy with me consists of 50-minute, one-on-one sessions that help you uncover your inner strength. And I don’t just sit there and listen blankly. I will guide you on this journey of meeting your parts and becoming more Self-led. Here’s how it will work step-by-step:
How Internal Family Systems Therapy Works
First, we turn your attention inward and find a part of yourself that needs your help.
Then we really focus in on this part in an effort to learn more about it.
We flesh it out, getting to know some of its more basic information.
Next, we test out how you're feeling toward it to make sure you're coming toward the part from a Self-led place.
If you are, we befriend the part, learning more about what it does for you and your system as a whole.
We find out some of the part's fears about letting go of their roles that might not serve the system so well.
After some time is spent getting to know all of your parts and having them learn to trust your Self, we begin the deeper work of unburdening them. Through trust in you, they can let go of some of your past hurts and move forward with even more resilience than before.
